Melk - Travel & Tourism Guide Melk - Autriche

On the banks of the Danube, a must in Lower Austria and a classic day trip for visitors to Vienna. The old town with its quiet lanes and the jewel of its huge baroque abbey, one of the largest in the country, are worth a visit. Melk developed from the 10th century onwards on the initiative of the powerful Babenberg family, who allowed the Benedictines to found an abbey here, which spread over Lower Austria for several centuries and reached its zenith in the 17th century. The Benedictine abbey, the emblem of the Wachau, is a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site, as is the region itself.
